PIrTsBuRG, Aug. 24.-Arthur Glider
new, member of Post 157, of the Il. A.
R., died on Saturday and was buried
with Grand Army honors. He was
also a Catholic, and his family and
Army comrades desired his interment
from the church. The priests at the
| Cathedral were notified of the funeral,
and Father Graham was appointed to
say mass for the repose OF the soul.
Father Kearney, rector OF the church,
is said to have declared that if the
body was buried by the Grand Army,
it could not be buried from the church
and gave instructions as to how the
funeral should be conducted. which
greatly angered the dead mans COM
rades. He was also reported as say
| ing that if the coffin was covered with
the stars and stripes, the flag would
have to be taken off before the coffin
| could be allowed in the church. The
funeral took place yesterday and Post
1877 took charge of the remains. -Four
of his comrades were selected as pail
bearers, and the rest formed in line
and followed the remains. When
they arrived at the cathedral the COT
fin was taken out but the flag was re-
moved and left in the hearse. The
pail bearers, all Grand Army men,
did not wear anything to denote that
they were such except their buttons.
They were followed by the family and
others. The cortege moved into the
church. The comrades who were in
uniform, with the exception OF the
pail bearers, did not enter the church
but remained outside until the
services were over and the body was
carried out again. After the coffin
was placed in the hearse the flag was
wrapped around it again and the re-
mains inferred in st. Mary's Cemetery
where the usual burial services OF the
| order were observed.
